Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AI

My manual focus Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AI

I found mine by accident. I was taking in image files to be processed into prints and there it was in the case.

“May I see that lens?”

The tag was marked $25 and at that moment I decided to buy it. I didn’t know then if it was AI or AIS but I did know it was a bargain. I got it home and cleaned it and knew I had purchased the best deal in all of my equipment. 

The first time I used it was on my D780 and the results were just as good as I thought. I used it inside and it was easy to focus and I enjoyed the pictures I got from it.

It’s a lens that I will always have in my bag. DSLR or film, the Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AI is a nice sharp lens.
